The pick up was fast, and the drop off was easy. The car was clean, and comfortable. The only little thing is that we didn’t have winter tires in end October and we had snow on our way. Otherwise, everything was perfect.

Car was dirty from previous use. Had food wrapping and salt and pepper packages open in cup holders (spilt). Lines are huge during pick up and takes a very long time to get processed.

The car was great, the staff was great. I would have liked unlimited mileage.
The price doubled when I did the pickup of the vehicle and this is clearly due an unclear and intentioned hidding cost policy of Kayak. I will never book nothing else using Kayak. You cheat, you lie, you’re not true.

Agent at pickup counter was not overly friendly and changed the type of car I had reserved. Secondly, they (Hertz), would not allow me to change pick up locations to make it more convenient for me, costing me an Uber ride. Lastly, they overcharged me and I'm still waiting for them to correct the error.

So wait in line was horrible. I was given a Toyota Corolla, which that would have been OK but the whole front windshield had a crack from one end of the windshield to the other. There were also a lot of pits and holes in the front windshield. I should have returned the car When I saw the windshield. I should’ve never driven it out of the lot, but I was so exhausted from standing in line. I just wanted to get out of the airport.

The service was great. The only thing is that the car they had for us had a long crack across the windshield. I refused the car and they provided us a SUV instead which was the only other car they had at that moment and we had to pay 70$ more for the week. The rest were perfect.

The vehicle was clunky and sounded like the wheel was in need of repair. The steering was challenging and clearly needed power steering fluid or something. The breaks were squeaking and anytime the wheel was turned at slow speeds there was squeaking. Thanks.
We waited in line at the Calgary airport for almost 2 hours. None of the other companies had a line. The price was better than the other companies, but I would have gladly paid more rather than stand in line for 2 hours.

Very surprised to see Calgary airport pickup not possible because it’s off site. NOT TRUE Dollar is ON SITE. Please correct your website Great service!
I must have phoned the number at the airport, the 1-888 number and gone on the website to cancel the reservation 10 times. The phone numbers were useless, nobody ever picked up and the online took multiple tries to get a confirmation cancellation, I finally went to another company and would not ever try the company again.
There was not an airport shuttle as advertised. Just a car that could not fit everyone at once. Also there was a mandatory insurance charge added at the pickup that was not disclosed by kayak. Then a mileage fee that was also not disclosed previously. I ended up paying $100 more to ace than what was advertised on kayak for only a 2 day rental. Id have never booked through kayak if I knew that would be the case and i wont be doing it again.

My first time renting a car through kayak. Terrible experience. - ace is not located at the airport despite description - had to call and wait for 20 min for shuttle pick up - no greeting by driver - pick up location in middle of nowhere - held 500.00 on my cc - needed my personal vehicle license plate number - I will never use this rental company again.
